Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Y’all are weirdos. It’s just a fucking call. Take it, ask the person to slow down. It’s so quick. The amount of typing needed to replaced it is ridiculous.
I think this kind of problem is more exhibited in millennials who grew up on online chat and message boards. For younger Gen Zs who basically live on Discord, there's less apprehension about calling someone. Face-to-face communication is another story for those Gen Zs, though.
I’m a millennial who grew up on chat. It’s really just a vocal minority.
Ba-dum-tss!
I'm not weird. You're weird.
Haha agreed. You don't have to go back and forth over several hours or days to sort an issue out when you call. You can just hash it all out over the phone in a fraction of the time, and be on your way.
Oh well, to each their own.
Nah, the commitment in time on a call is unknown. I know I can fire off an email in under a minute. A call? That might take a few minutes. I'll only call if I absolutely need an immediate response. Otherwise? Eat shit. I'm not getting roped into phone calls.
